401-105Today’s Brief Distraction is from Jack Adams. It features Jesse Jordan. The Jack Adams Jock Brief is designed to cup the rear and give shape. You’ll feel better than ever with the great support it provides in front due to a very roomy pouch that allows the underwear to move with you. Made with a soft Cotton and Elastane blend, the underwear will stand the test of time and stay super soft even after multiple washings. Made from 95% Cotton and 5% Elastane.

candyman-99036-lumbrjacksHalloween is right around the corner and it’s time to think about what you want to be… It also begs the question “Do you want to wear underwear as a costume?” If you answered yes then you need to see Candyman’s latest costume undies. The one we are profiling is the Lumberjack.

Candyman has never been a stranger to making costumes. When they first came across my radar was, I think back in 2011, and they released a slew of great costume undies. This year they have returned to their roots and done some really fun costumes. The Lumberjack is a denim look boxer with suspenders. The Pouch and rear pocket have a plaid print, as well as the included cuffs. The suspenders are a great touch as well. If you add a pair of boots and maybe a trucker cap, will make the look complete. I would say the axe is optional.

I think this is super fun and perfect costume for the guy who wants to show it all off. This gives you great coverage but shows enough to be sexy. They should be at retailers now or coming soon!

Love them or hate them selfies are a staple on the net. Everyone is taking pictures of themselves and posting on Facebook, Tumblr, and Twitter Evidence of this is just by looking at our Twiter stream and you will see tons of them.

So this got us thinking at what are some things you should do to take a good selfie?

  • Have a Clean Mirror to take a picture in – Its hard to take a good picture when the mirror is dirty
  • Clean up the clutter – If in the bathroom clean off the counter and don’t have anything distract from your picture
  • Pick underwear that accentuates your body – Pick a pair that will show off what you want to show off
  • Make sure the picture is in focus – this may seem like a duh tip but there are plenty out of focus

We asked some our Twitter followers for tips as well, here are their tips:

  • @drummajorkev – Find a hot guy in his underwear to take them for you
  • @mafiamonore – Don’t pad the crotch out with tissue/socks as we can tell!
  • @mac12399 – find good lightning and don’t take pics on the bathroom, use your bedroom instead. – Great tip!
  • @undiedude – taking photos with directional lighting that comes from overhead helps accentuate pectoral, abdominal, and leg muscles. Neutral bg.
  • @phlip_fusco – 1)Embrace how lame you probably look 2)Stop taking yourself so seriously 🙂

With all these tips you should be able to ace the selfie test. We also would love to hear your tips. If you think there are any we should include post a comment, tweet us or leave a comment on facebook.

Arrest Me White FrontIf you’re looking for some super sexy and fun swimwear then the Arrest Me from Marcuse is the pair you have been waiting for! They have been out of stock for some time and they just informed us they are back in stock.

If you’re not familiar with Marcuse they make some really great undies and swimwear. They are based out of Australia so you may not have seen them too much in the States. We are looking to change that, we think this is a company you should all know and buy undies from!

“Arrest Me is made by Italian made fabric with extreme low waist. Probably one of the sexiest cut we have!” is what Marcuse told us and by the pics you can see that. We will include all the pics here!

 pump-jockstraps  Are you ready to get PUMP!ed? Whether it’s at the gym, the office, lounging at home or on a hot date you’re going to love wearing this new range of jockstraps from Canadian designer PUMP!. With their bold color combinations and striking design elements, these jocks are going to get you noticed. Don’t think it’s all style and no substance, not only are they good looking but they’re ultra-comfortable: They have super-plushed wide elasticated waistbands, some of the softest leg straps we’ve ever encountered and are completed with a luxury cotton pouch.

Here’s the details:

There’s 6 amazing color combinations with the positive life affirming logo PUMP! front and center of the waistband. The pouch is a brushed aqua cotton with a hint of spandex for stretch and fit. The contoured pouch is accented with contrasting piping and the center stitching defines the bulge. Each jock includes a full two inch wide plushed waistband with woven and embossed large front and center PUMP! logo plus a smaller off-center one at the back complete with racing stripes. Finally, the leg straps are one inch wide and as we mentioned, incredibly soft.

As for the model, it’s our fan favorite Trent. You may notice his body is better than ever. That’s because he’s getting ready for a fitness competition next month. In fact you could probably say… he’s PUMPed.

This was something super fun for us at UNB. It was in no way scientific but a way to see who you guys like as your favorite underwear model. From the begining it was a three way race between Colby Melvin, Philip Fusco and Jon Varak. Philip and Jon really took to Twitter and Facebook and campaigned for the honor.

Readers were allowed to vote as many times as they liked. And in the last day over 6,000 votes were cast. That was double the votes since the vote started! But after the votes were cast the Winners are as follows:

1. Philip Fuscophilip+fusco+undergear-022. Jon Varak

9422_0013. Colby Melvin

main-9We hoped you enjoyed this as much as we did. It was way bigger than any of us ever expected. We will be doing more fun things like this soon. Also, we plan to interview both Jon and Philip soon, so stay tuned

*This post is written as a direct plea to a college aged, underwear impaired guy. I ask that all of us which care for our fellow man make spreading the gospel of better underwear a point.*

It can be said that the majority of American society struggles to step out of a certain mold. Whether it’s media fabricated or a standard created by fellow friends and colleagues, guys tend to copy their surroundings, especially when it comes to underwear. College guys may be the biggest offenders and as a man which falls into this demographic, I see it first hand daily. Underwear such as basic, cheap construction boxers which extend to your knees in a variety of cheezy patterns or the basic six plus multi pack hanes/fruit of the loom boxer briefs are the general norm of the population. I used to wear these undies. Why did I stop? THEY’RE FREAKING UNCOMFORTABLE! As an avid runner, wearing boxers/boxer briefs of this variety was tortuous. Weggies, underwear binding, extreme chafing, and fabric which did not wick away moisture made workouts a hassle. Those experiences made my switch to higher quality undies an absolute necessity and resulted in my switch.

Men, I want you to ask yourself a question. Do you think that your significant other cares about your underwear? The answer is certainly complicated. I honestly don’t think men will be able to see into the mind of a woman with full understanding. Having said this, I truly think women want to see guys wearing clean, fashion forward underwear on their man. Guys, don’t we all want to see women wearing super sexy, sleek and fashionable? Don’t you think they also deserve the same treatment? I’m telling you (and from success) that yes, they do want to see you wearing great undies. Heck, if anything, maybe talking about why you wear designer undies can give you a foot in the door. Use whatever you can to make it happen!

We are creatures of habit. We tend to do something if it’s familiar. Whether it’s taking the same route to class each day or the style of underwear style we have worn for 15 years, it’s tough to break a routine. This is true even if you don’t really like what you’re doing. Guys, I get it. You think that because others aren’t wearing designer undies, you will somehow be outcasted if you do. It’s simply not true. Be the change, start the change. It only takes one to influence a few others. I can remember my friends busting my balls in the locker room after a workout when they saw my CK briefs. It didn’t bother me and I kept wearing them, continually pointing out all the benefits they provided me in the man region during long runs and gym workouts. It took about a month before I turned to a teammate, only to see him donning a pair of white Calvin Klein X Micro Hip Briefs, to which I busted his balls. We all control our own decisions, but if you’re not happy and satisfied with your underwear, don’t be afraid to change. In the end, it’s just another piece of clothing.

Now, picture this situation. It’s Wednesday morning and you just hit snooze one too many times on your alarm. Class is in 15 minutes. You’re scrambling to get ready and you look in your underwear drawer. What do you find? Nothing. Now, underwear supply is the standard by which many our age decides when to wash our clothes. No one wants to run out of fresh undies, but still, some guys among our generation don’t put an emphasis on wearing fresh underwear. Unfortunately, there are some guys that will just take their previously worn underwear, turn them inside out, and use them again.  Come on guys, don’t do this! I know there are weeks throughout each semester where its hard to find two hours to do your laundry, but you should either just bite the bullet and get clothes washed as fast as possible when out of clean undies or try to purchase additional undies. There should never be a reason as to why you have underwear on under your jeans with an inside out tag. Also, if your undies begin to develop large holes and loose their shape, bite the bullet and throw them out. These undies have done their time and it’s time to move on to new pairs.

I implore you to try something new. At least give it a shot. Try not getting hung up on societal norms and what others do. Wear what will make you feel best. And if you still like what you wear now after trying new things, that is fine

You maybe doing a double take during this post, but yes Ginch Gonch is back on the market. They have been going through a lot of legal battles but those are now settled and they are aiming to get Ginch Gonch Back in your underwear drawer.

While in Vegas for Magic I had the opportunity to meet with Neil, the new owner of Ginch Gonch. We went briefly over the history and how they are moving forward. The first thing I liked is they aren’t loosing the whimsy and charm of the original Ginch Gonch Brand. The really fun and youthful prints are part of the collection.

I have a long history whit Ginch Gonch. They were one of the first companies i worked with on UNB and met at Magic. So I’m really glad they are back. To share one of my favorites I reviewed back in the day was the Motorcycle and Truck series. And yes I got a few strange looks when I wore them, but I didn’t care at all. They were comfy and just fun. So to me it’s great they are not loosing this part of their brand. I have a few pairs of them still in my drawer. And yes I still wear them.

The new Ginch Gonch has the philosophy ‘Live like a Child”. While they are holding on to the past they are moving into the future. They are doing this by creating new designs that compliment the “classic” patterns. I know not everyone wants to walk around in undies with sports balls on them, but you may like sports themed underwear. The new collections are:

ginch-gonch-collections

  • Athlete – The sports ball theme. The print has different balls whereas the non print has balls on the pouch and referee stripes
  • Super Hero – The print has flying super heroes that remind you of being a kid the non print has the the Ginch Gonch super hero logo in blue.
  • Patrol – Is the police pair. The print has police cars. The non print is blue with a badge on the pouch!
  • Jawbreakers – This doesn’t have a print but are inspired by the colors of Jawbreakers in several flavors.

If you were a fan of Ginch Gonch we urge you to check them out again, they are still the fun company you knew before. I think the new owner is going to embrace the heritage but yet move forward with great new designs. He’s taking a very active role in everything form designing, marketing and product packaging! I expect to see great things from them over the next few years. Find them at http://www.ginchgonch.com. We will be covering them and bring you more in depth posts on the different collections soon!
